Cam-it-be?


What's the over/under on how many games Marcus Camby plays this year?

I think 62 is a good number. Him playing in 75% of the games for Kiki's Nuggets sounds like a good year for the Candyman. Of course, him already outlasting Nene and K-Mart in terms of games played is a major psychological victory for Camby. Man, are the Nuggets gonna be hurting when (not if) he goes down.

Here is a bet for Mr. East: An old school Sonics hoops card says that I can predict Camby's number of played games better than you. I think he will appear in 62 games.


Somehow this whole thing is too good to be true. How does that trade for Antonio McDyess look now? Actually, it looks good for both guys. McDyess got a championship in Detroit eventually, and Camby is the best player in the league this year. Ugh.

The Nuggets are a pretty good team so far. If Camby goes down they will die. In light of that very delicate proposition, Kiki should be feeding Camby beer and massaging him like Kobe Beef.

I'll go out on a limb and predict that somehow the guy will play in 76 games this year and surprise everyone. He can't possibly keep up the pace he's at now, but he could be a 2nd Team All-NBAer if he stays healthy.

Mr. West: If I'm right you owe me an old school Charles Oakley Knicks card....(by the way....you're getting a Michael Cage with Jerry Curl card if you're right).
